Such a beautiful capture! Love the softness to this photo. Delicate little butterfly on the small flowers. Great clarity, lighting and detail. Well done!

Initial impact excellent. The peppergrass or the butterfly could each make a great picture on its own. Together they give much to look at. Great choice of bkg. color. Very nice indeed.

Very lovely. The color of both the butterfly and the bloom are gentle. I like your framing and presentation, with that clear background, and the diagonal position of the bloom. Lighting. focus and technical skills, high five. Well captured.

Outstanding butterfly with a fur as back side, outstanding capture on the edge of a fragile flower and outstanding ambiance in soft pastel background colors creating a nice enhancement - super focus and amazing exposure - genuine soft contrast and special light influx bringing kind like magic - nicely frame - perfect composition, super reaction, beautiful angle and close p showing the nice design and textures in perfection - clear and sharp in details,
A very beautiful and harmonious wild life shot, all the best for the contest

Nice shot of this little white butterfly. Good placement in the frame, Nice color and focus with a great blurry background, The bottom shot looks very well focused, but the top one seems a bit soft- may be the size conversion/ resizing. Good job!

Butterflies are always the most difficult to photograph as they are very flighty. You caught this one perfectly and framed it well. well done and good luck

Ur welcome

Comment from FBI GUY
The capture of the beautiful butterfly tipped off the end of the foliage is stunning. I have never seen this species. The muted pattern on it's wings is very unique. The lighting is a touch strong on the foliage but on the other hand, the effect of light gives the scene a unique feel of delicate watercolor painting.
